For the love of felt! I am all about color. I have found felt and flower projects are a simple way to add that pop of color to an ordinary project or room. To make this felt flower, I simply cut eight petals out of felt. Each petal was roughly 2.5" long. I used wool felt balls as the center of my flower and hot glued one petal at a time on to it. After I had one row of petals around my felt ball, I simply hot glued another row behind. Once both layers of petals were glued in place, I Continue Reading
DIY Felt Flowers
There have been cooler temps here. We are wearing jeans and enjoying the new colors on the trees. I love fall. It is my favorite season of all. Fall always makes me break out my felt crafts.

It was the best decision I have ever made. When we got married, I moved in to his house. I went from living in a dorm room to owning a house in a matter of months. It Continue Reading
The Break Down of Curb Appeal
We have always been one of those families that would rather spend money and time working on the inside of our house... or eating out... or shopping... or craft supplies (me) or camera equipment (Matt) or new clothes or new home decor or thrifting treasures Really, we have always been that family that would rather spend time and money on ANYTHING but the landscape of our house.
